There is now a Google Dictionary
This is why we love Google. We get it: they want to take over the world, bit by bit, slowly but surely — but, at the end of the day, they offer high-quality services at unbeatable prices (i.e. free). Occasionally it can certainly get a little claustrophobic, messing around in Google’s playground — you’re free to wander around, sample the goods, enjoy the ride… but don’t try to actually leave. That’s why they throw in neat, little benevolent things like the Google Dictionary. It’s karmic balance, y’see. Give it a go, it’s cool!
For some reason, the Google Dictionary and all its beautiful splendor has been very quietly released. There doesn’t seem to be an official blog post anywhere — just a smattering of news sources reporting it. I have no idea why they’re not shouting it from the roof-tops though: Google Dictionary is great! It’s minimalist and clean, as you would expect — and there are no ads! Just definitions, related phrases and different definitions/contexts from around the Web. Lovely.
Eventually, the Internet will be Google, but while they keep churning out the goodies, the actual change-over in ownership will probably pass us by. There are none so blind as those that will not see…
